Taking Aim at Gun Control | Capital Commentary
Taking Aim at Gun Control | Capital Commentary by Prof. Roy Clouser. MGB: Co-opting the NRA into gun control is an interesting idea worthy of merit, however it would not have stopped many of the mass shooting incidents. Even Suspect A's university knew there was a problem - but erred on the side of not interfering with his freedom to reject treatment, although the local gun master may have denied him a license to buy firearms, given his reaction to the voice mails left at his range . Still, as long as individuals get the benefit of the doubt on judging their own sanity, we will have such incidents - maybe with explosives instead of firearms. As Christians, we must err on the side of compassion, which may trump the liberty rights of those whose freedom is impaired by their own illness.
